Chapter 350 Chapter 350: Emmanuel gave Lance a kick and murmured, “What are you waiting for? Go apologize to Elliana p> That made Lance flinch, and he glanced at Elliana, his voice unsure. “Are you really River? The one I admire p> Turning toward him, Elliana answered with a calm,
Chapter 349 Chapter 349: Lance blinked, confused, and asked, “Mr. Tucker, I don’t understand. What do you mean p> Hutton looked at him as if he were a fool. “Mr. Evans, you were standing right here when I spoke with my mentor. And you’re telling me you still don’t get
Chapter 348 Chapter 348: Elliana turned slightly, gave him a cool look, and said flatly, “I came to see how ‘well’ you’re managing things p> At that, Hutton’s expression shifted uncomfortably, and he lowered his gaze like a protégé being lectured. The entire room fell into stunned silence. Why in
Chapter 347 Chapter 347: Lance, too, had steadied himself more than before. After hearing Hutton declare that the problem couldn’t be solved, he said nothing. There was no use fighting it—he had no choice but to let it sink in. A brief silence settled over the room before Lance managed
Chapter 346 Chapter 346: Lance parted his lips to retort but found no words forthcoming. A brief pang of unease jabbed at him unexpectedly. Was he truly treating her unfairly? Yet, quickly shaking off the feeling, he hardened his stance and said, “Don’t twist this around, Elliana. You’re constantly causing
Chapter 345 Chapter 345: Dillen nodded. “Absolutely. Even before that, Mr. Tucker was already a professor—brilliant and respected. Most people thought he had reached his peak. But after learning from River, his skills soared. He always says that being her protégé is the proudest moment of his life p> Elliana
Chapter 344 Chapter 344: Casting one last disdainful look at Elliana, Lance turned his attention back to Dillen. “Mr. Perez, what kind of person is River beneath the brilliance p> Without hesitation, Dillen answered, “We didn’t speak for long, so I can’t pretend to know her well. But the impression
Chapter 343 Chapter 343: But what made this moment feel almost unreal was the fact that Hutton had studied under River. That alone carried the weight of legend. For them, it felt like brushing against the summit of AI research. The stakes were clear. If even Hutton couldn’t identify a
Chapter 342 Chapter 342: Dillen nodded solemnly. “From what I see, restarting the project is the only viable option p> Alonso turned to Lance with an apologetic expression. “Mr. Perez and I did all we could p> Lance exhaled slowly, his face lined with frustration. “We’ve long known that this
Chapter 341 Chapter 341: Lance’s expression faltered for a brief second. There was no way Elliana could’ve met someone like Dillen. Dillen was a top-secret national asset, a government-trained AI expert whose background was so tightly guarded that even seasoned researchers only heard whispers of his existence. Most people in
Chapter 340 Chapter 340: Sensing the challenge in Lance’s gaze, Elliana responded with blunt confidence, “To me, you’re nothing more than an immature boy—not even worthy of my attention p> “Immature boy?” Lance’s brow furrowed sharply. “Elliana, why do you act like you’re superior? I’m older than you p> She
Chapter 339 Chapter 339: Relief washed over Emmanuel’s face. He clasped his hands together. “Then please, Alonso, introduce us. Whatever he needs—compensation, accommodations—we’ll take care of it p> Without another word, Alonso pulled out his phone and stepped away to make the call. After a tense few minutes, he returned,
Chapter 338 Chapter 338: Roughly an hour slipped by before Alonso finally broke the silence with a weary sigh. “I really want to help, but I can’t fix this p> “What?” Faces froze as they took in Alonso, disbelief written across every brow. When even Alonso failed to fix it,
Chapter 337 Chapter 337: Lance quickly explained the situation. “Alonso, do you have time to help me out p> To his surprise, Alonso agreed easily. “Actually, I’m near the Evans Group building right now. I’ll drop by and take a look p> Lance nearly burst with joy. “Thank you so
Chapter 336 Chapter 336: “I’ve heard whispers that Alonso’s fees are legendary, though p> Emmanuel’s eyes lit up with a rare glimmer of hope. “Lance, if there’s even the slightest chance that he can rescue us from this abyss, pay whatever he demands. Just bring him into our world p>
Chapter 335 Chapter 335: Emmanuel’s mood soured. He had poured years of money into this department, only to see no returns. The board members and family shareholders were already voicing their complaints more loudly with each passing day. He had placed all his hopes on the Seek project as his
Chapter 334 Chapter 334: As the project director, Lance bore the weight of the entire Al R&D team’s failures on his shoulders, stress radiating from every tense muscle in his body. He hunched over his computer like a man possessed, fingers dancing frantically across the keyboard as he cycled through
Chapter 333 Chapter 333: The Evans Group had ventured into artificial intelligence research during Jarrett’s leadership, a field they had pursued for over a decade without any significant breakthroughs. Jarrett had initially authorized the AI R&D Department primarily to support Emmanuel’s aspirations. Emmanuel had developed a passion for AI development
Chapter 332 Chapter 332: Just then, a knock snapped him out of his daze. He straightened up, adjusted his collar, and quickly glanced in the mirror to check for any lipstick marks. “Come in,” he called out. The door opened, and to his surprise, Wesley stepped inside. Cole raised a
Chapter 331 Chapter 331: Cole’s mouth parted slightly. Words failed him. Elliana stepped closer, her voice rising with every word. “You’re knocked out, sleeping like a baby, and I’m wide awake, fighting the urge to pounce on you! What do you think happens if I lose control, huh? What if
